Where's the kaboom? There was supposed to be an earth-shattering kaboom. Live from the basement of the YouTube headquarters, it's the Stacking Benjamin Show. I'm Joe's mom's neighbor, Doug, and it's that time.

0:28.1

We're running a year-long competition between our frequent contributors, and today we're playing for not one, but two points by presenting one of our famous game shows.

0:39.3

What are the best ways you can lose money in the financial markets?
